Highlander is an established provider of IT Learning and Development solutions.
The company was originally established in 1995 as a provider of programming tools and related services, however the company quickly evolved to focus primarily on the learning and development sector.
Over the last few years as learning technology has evolved, Highlander has worked on implementing solutions and methods for offering Classroom, Blended and Online learning solutions. The company takes advantage of the latest technology, and in some cases develops it's own, whilst being careful not to simply use technology for the sake of it.
Today Highlander focuses on providing professional training services on products from Adobe, Google, Autodesk and a number of other vendors as well as open source technologies. The company aims for high quality standards and has won a number of awards over the years including Macromedia "Training Partner of the Year", Oracle "Outstanding Partner" Award and ColdFusion Developers Journal "Best Worldwide Training and Education".
Highlander's client base has grown over the years to cover a wide range of organisations, some of which can be seen on the sample clients page of the site. We work with large corporates through to small businesses, government, education and NGO’s.
